All occasion card featuring a fun background, a watercoloured truck scene and a key brad

 I am working on cards for my family's special occasions!!  I started with a red card and added this funky background that coordinated well.  The truck is stamped though I do not own the stamp so it was borrowed from someone!! I painted the background starting with the ground and moved up.  I painted the truck yellow and added clear glitter gel pen to the hub caps, lights, bumpers and door handle which would have been chromed.  Added white gel pen to neaten up the white walls on the tires.  I added paper piercing on all four sides before adhering it to a black layer.  I added the layered key brad embellishment to it then mounted over my background using 3D foam tape.  Happy with how it worked out!!  Therese

Birthday card featuring a large watercoloured birthday greeting, god sequin star and colourful borders

 A card for one of my grandsons who is celebrating his birthday in a few days!!  The greeting is from Craft Starters and I watercoloured it to coordinating with my decorative borders (SU).  I layered the borders behind a gold layer, added the star embellishment with the cording and finally tucked the greeting under the star after paper piercing the edges with my pattern tracing tool. I adhered this large element to black card which I created to fit in a luxurious gold envelope I found in my stash!!  Therese
